Quirky historic barn conversion sleeping 23, ideal for large celebrations and ceremonies near Lavenham

Tudor Barn, Lavenham, Sudbury, Suffolk, sleeps 2-23 in 5 bedrooms.

.. a friend had described the barn but we were all completely blown away when we arrived..

The 16th century aisled barn is huge, with flexible living space for large groups – room to be together - and apart.

Barn peacefully situated down a long farm drive, surrounded by meadows, hedges, ponds and yet more ancient listed barns (said to be one of the finest preserved 17th century farmyards in the country) next to the beautiful hall farmhouse.

The owners are unashamedly "green" - you'll be asked to recycle, compost, turn off lights, consider public transport options, appreciate local produce, enjoy taking to the bicycle and experiment going slow!
